Have you ever wondered where the “yoga is stretching” madness comes from? The history of yoga is complicated and extends back thousands of years. It started simply with the aim of unifying the body, mind, and spirit. Fast forward to today… and here we are: thinking that yoga is about stretching and flexibility, and that if you can’t touch your toes, you're not a “good yogi”.

In this episode of Stop Stretching! we dive deep into the history of yoga and uncover where, when, why and how this obsession with stretching came about. You will hear about the original yogis, the very first yoga posture, the rise of Hatha Yoga, and how yoga has evolved into an ‘exercise routine’ made up of fancy poses practiced by people wearing spandex.

After understanding yoga’s ancient roots and debunking our modern-day way of practicing, you’ll learn there are only 2 things you need to practice yoga — and they have nothing to do with stretching and flexibility!
